Somewhere Near Japan chords by The Beach Boys

Chords with lyrics

from the "Still Cruisin'" album 1989

[D MajorD] [B minorBm] [G+G] [A augmentedA]

[D MajorD] Late last night
I got an [G+G] SOS
[D MajorD] The fairytale girl's
in [G+G] deep distress
She says, I [B minorBm] don't know where I am
But it's near Jap[A augmentedA]an

[D MajorD] My engine's all [G+G] burned out
[D MajorD] My crew has all [G+G] bailed out
I don't know [B minorBm] where I am
But it's somewhere near Ja[A augmentedA]pan

And she said,
[D MajorD] Rescue me, I'm somewhere
in the [B minorBm] China Sea
I think I'm sinkin' [G+G] fast
This call is probably my [A augmentedA] last
[D MajorD] I'm throwing out a life line [B minorBm]

And I'm doing it
for old time's [G+G] sake
Though I know you're gonna
break my [A augmentedA] heart one more time

[D MajorD] Late last night
I got an [G+G] SOS
[D MajorD] The fairytale girl's
in [G+G] deep distress
She says, I [B minorBm] don't know where I am
But it's near Jap[A augmentedA]an

[D MajorD] My engine's all [G+G] burned out
[D MajorD] My crew has all [G+G] bailed out
I don't know [B minorBm] where I am
But it's somewhere near Ja[A augmentedA]pan

And she said,
[D MajorD] Thank you dear, I think she sounded
[B minorBm] quite sincere
And when she turned to [G+G] go
She said, I crave adventure
Don't you [A augmentedA] know

[D MajorD] [G+G] [B minorBm] [G+G] [A augmentedA]


And [D MajorD] now she's trippin'
on some [G+G] Chinese junk
[D MajorD] Her world is spinning
and her [G+G] hope has sunk
So I [B minorBm] close my eyes
And I'm somewhere near [A augmentedA] Japan
[D MajorD] The spinning stopped
and the [G+G] world stood still
[D MajorD] I broke her fall
and I al[B minorBm]ways will
Strung out in [G+G] no man's land
Somewhere near Jap[A augmentedA]an

[D MajorD]Rescue me [G+G]
[D MajorD] [B minorBm] [G+G] [A augmentedA]
[D MajorD] [G+G] [D MajorD] [B minorBm] [G+G] [A augmentedA]
[D MajorD] [G+G] [D MajorD] [B minorBm] [G+G] [A augmentedA]
